Am I too poor to ever become an actor?

Laurette Taylor on "The Quality Most Needed"

Shoutout to /u/cryoncue for referring to this often enough to make me track it down. Some context: *this was written in 1914*. Don't forget that as you read. Some of the references and cultural things won't land as intended, but this is a full eight years...
